Uwe Henneken is a German painter who lives in Berlin. He is known for his lush, seductive palettes and fairy tale imagery rendered in an almost cartoony (but also sometimes Expressionist) style. The flower-strewn oak forests and mountainous landscapes that serve as his Romantic backdrops veer towards psychedelic fantasy, as the boneless but glowing inhabitants—seemingly released from a child's nursery book—act out haunting narratives set in bygone eras.
